Acrylic painting is fun, but don't get it on your clothes. I know from experience ;)

This is a palm tree painting I did as a Christmas gift. I copied the image, down to the border, from a bathroom rug. Hehe...me and my copying :P
Well, this was my second large canvas painting. It seems the larger the frame the more nervous I get. My original idea was just to paint the blue, green, and white flowers, but I didn't get them quite centered. So, plan B...paint more flowers! I decided to add a punch of color. What do you think? I'm still not sure what I think about it. I kind of like it, but feel like it's just a jumbled mess of mixed matched items. I'm glad my Mom and her husband like it, though ;) Love ya guys :D
